The editorial take
Cold beer is the anchor here, with daily discounted drafts and a lineup that runs from local PNW pours to Budweiser, Miller, and Pabst Blue Ribbon. The cocktail side is built around five custom Bloody Marys, served on weekend mornings and loaded with shrimp, bacon, and other garnishes. Daily happy hour specials also discount wells and appetizers, and a specials board is referenced. This is a straightforward beer-first program with a weekend Bloody Mary ritual.
